I am trying to find information about, and possibly purchase, some DiaCompe center pull brakes that are upgraded copies of Mafac Racer brakes. These were late 1970s/early 1980s vintage brakes that were supplied on some high end Japanese touring bikes. They were usually seen with brazed-on pivots. They had wheel guides as part of the caliper arms. They also had ball bearing pivots. I am going strictly from memory on this and I may have some details wrong.
If you have any information on these brakes or know a source where I may purchase them, please contact me.
Enjoy the long weekend!
